River Road Tops has offered<br />

custom cabinets<br />

and countertops since 1994<br />

River Road Tops first opened its<br />

doors in Lemont in 1994. Since<br />

then, they have expanded their<br />

space and business and moved to<br />

Lockport, 3341 South State St.<br />

They are a family owned and operated<br />

business that has been open<br />

for 18 years.<br />

Their expanding showroom<br />

is designed to showcase several<br />

different materials, colors, and<br />

designs that are available. They<br />

extend quality service to their customers<br />

as well as offer custom and<br />

personal advice on home design.<br />

They specialize in custom<br />

cabinets and countertops for any<br />

residential or commercial space.<br />

Offering custom cabinets and<br />

countertops means having a lot<br />

more space as well as several different<br />

options. They present their<br />

customers with a wide variety of<br />

products. Besides cabinets and<br />

countertops, they also specialize<br />

in custom kitchens and baths, entertainment<br />

centers, fireplaces, and<br />

wall units. They are proud to present<br />

their customers with quality<br />

materials such as granite, marble,<br />

quartz, limestone, solid surface,<br />

laminate and more.<br />

They feel their business is only<br />

as good as their satisfied customers.<br />

Most of the work that has been<br />

done at River Road Tops is through<br />

referrals from all of our satisfied<br />

clients. The owner, Richard, helps<br />

one throughout the entire process.<br />

Whether it may be picking out<br />

a material, style, or even color,<br />

Richard feels that working with<br />

the customer from start to finish<br />

leads to the right design.<br />

American Financial Network helps<br />

customers get their best mortgage<br />

Todd Probasco, regional<br />

manager mortgage banker with<br />

American Financial Network in<br />

Orland Park, enjoys helping his<br />

clients with buying or refinancing<br />

their homes.<br />

“I love real estate, the mortgage<br />

industry and helping my<br />

clients achieve their goals,”<br />

Probasco said.<br />

When it comes to getting<br />

a new mortgage, Probasco<br />

says there are several factors<br />

a homeowner should take into<br />

consideration when choosing a<br />

new loan:<br />

Is the loan officer state licensed?<br />

Banks, credit unions<br />

and individuals are not. Licensed<br />

mortgage bankers must<br />

complete a comprehensive<br />

mortgage license education<br />

requirement, pass a national<br />

exam, have credit and background<br />

checks completed and<br />

maintain continuing education.<br />

Evaluate your mortgage options.<br />

There are several different<br />

types of mortgage programs<br />

available based on length, fixed<br />

versus adjustable, down payment<br />

and rate. Have your licensed<br />

loan officer go over all<br />

of the options to see what is<br />

best for you and your real estate<br />

goals.<br />

Experience. This is very important,<br />

because when getting<br />

a new mortgage, you are probably<br />

dealing with the largest<br />

business transaction in your<br />

life. Make sure your licensed<br />

loan officer has the years of experience<br />

and knowledge to help<br />

you complete your transaction<br />

in a smooth and easy manner.<br />

Is your licensed loan officer<br />

local? When getting a new<br />

mortgage, it is best to deal with<br />

someone local who knows the<br />

market, can meet with you, has<br />

local references you can review<br />

and is available when you have<br />

a question. Dealing with an 800<br />

number or website out-of-state<br />

can create issues in communication<br />

and execution.<br />
